Testo Shining - Fire in Little Africa, Steph Simon & Dialtone - Fire In Little Africa feat. Steph Simon, Dialtone, Ayilla & Jerica
Testo della canzone Shining - Fire in Little Africa, Steph Simon & Dialtone (Fire In Little Africa feat. Steph Simon, Dialtone, Ayilla & Jerica), tratta dall'album Fire In Little Africa
Like a fresh pair of penny loafers with the polish on it
Tell 'em keep on shining
Like a diamond on yo' pinky when you sipping pinot Grigi
Tell 'em keep on shining (yeah yeah)
Always knew you had that glow but now they see it from the coast
Tell 'em keep on shining
They gon' keep on sleeping on you till they see that Roley on you
Tell 'em keep on shining
Crazy, I'm off in Tate Brady kitchen
Writing up a million-dollar mission
'Bout to turn this whole house into a business
They asked me how you did it
I came up off reverse racism
If these walls could talk they would tell you
That's a cold nigga
Paint pictures over rhythms make ya' soul shiver
I'm on my fifth summa
My stock rising my best clients invest in him
It's gon' be a long winter
'Cause I'm still winning
The jig is up the smoke clearing for those that's been pretending
When I walk in the building, ah
Gimme my space like an indention
To put this city in position that was my intention
We not the same and I put that on my search history
A little porn mixed with links on how to run a business
You know Steph gone keep it realistic
And how to profit off non-profits we popping
Jimmi keep on shining
Like a fresh pair of penny loafers with the polish on it
Tell 'em keep on shining
Like a diamond on yo' pinky when you sipping pinot grigi
Tell 'em keep on shining (yeah yeah)
Always knew you had that glow but now they see it from the coast
Tell 'em keep on shining
They gon' keep on sleeping on you till they see that Roley on you
Tell 'em keep on shining
Ice cold
Trillions tied to my soul
I won't fold
They can try to poke holes
But the story is authentic
Into my purpose I jumped and dove in it
City filled up with gems so we shine on
I closed that chapter my nigga I had to move on
300 deaths I guess that's how the story go
I guess they didn't mention that Jane Doe Jane
Doe Jane Doe
We pull up Jay Z 2003 and then we change clothes
Shining like I'm fresh off parole
This like fresh veggies for the soul
They want desserts I tell them take that shit to go
And I keep on shining
Killing us off, killing us softly
They could never really tell us what the cost mean
Meanwhile they distract us by the false screens
Tell me what it all means
Tell me what it all means
Picture this
Greenwood Ave Red man's land
See the brilliance built by a black man's hand
It was for us, by us
False prop- plot us
Hold up! Try us! Peg leg got us, we radiate
These jewels cost this shine ain't free
And for a buck they twist the rubric of our history
But we're what it looks like when we got our own backs
And we're what it looks like when we build it back black
We're what it looks like in a hundred years time
Got the audacity to walk up out these ashes and shine
We shining!
